## About

Founded in 2018 by Kevin Jones, and based in California, US, Blue Wire operates as a podcasting platform that features sports-related content delivered by journalists, athletes, and other media influencers. In February 2024, Blue Wire, Inc. raised growth capital funding from investor Decathlon Capital Partners.

Blue Wire operates a network supporting independent podcasts by providing sales and other support to help creators earn revenue. The network features over 260 shows, including podcasts such as Green Light with Chris Long, The Action Network Sports Betting Podcast, and Pat Mayo Experience. Blue Wire collaborates with prominent athletes and media figures, offering them creative control while providing strategic guidance. 

The company intends to use the February 2024 funding to provide financial support, enhance platform growth, introduce new content offerings, and develop a technology dashboard for podcasters.
